Local Development – Intergovernmental Review Contacts

Caltrans has planning staff within each of its 12 Districts statewide that are responsible for carrying out the LD-IGR program. Local government staff is encouraged to contact their respective district planning contacts for more information regarding how Caltrans can engage with local partner agencies through the LD-IGR program.

Caltrans works with local jurisdictions early and throughout their land use planning and decision-making processes through the Local Development-Intergovernmental Review (LD-IGR) program. Caltrans seeks to reduce vehicle trips associated with proposed new local development and recommends appropriate mitigation measures for dealing with the remaining transportation impacts of such development. Through this program Caltrans supports local development that addresses state priorities including achieving sustainable land use development patterns consistent with the goals of SB 375.
